What is music to you? What does it give you?

When I was a little kid I sat in front of a fold up record player listening to Sgt Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band. I was fascinated by the spinning apple and the infectious music coming out of the left and right speakers. - I was hooked. I have studied records ever since. Listening and doing music gives me a purpose and something to dream about. It's just a hobby, I doubt I will become a rock star at 55... But the dream lives on!

What is your music dream?

Stardom maybe? Or just having an audience that can relate to or be entertained by my little songs.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Make peace. Especially between the left and the right. This political hate is simply ridiculous.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Most British Invasion stuff. I also like some techno, country, modern rock and underground indie music,

What inspires you to make music?

It's fun

What is the message you want to send with your music?

The world is crazy. I see this, and I find it funny. We all have to live down here and need to try and be decent human beings.And even tho I try, I fail. The world just keeps getting more bizarre.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

It's been a long time since I have done it. But I used to really love it. Until it turns into a grind... Like a job. I already got a job that pays the bills. Playing in local clubs just aint gonna cut it.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

I really have no idea wha these guys are playing these days. But I probably would have said the same thing 20 years ago at the time. Now I kinda like stuff from 20 years ago.

What do you think of Drooble?

Not sure. New to me

What frustrates you most as a musician?

Lack of time. Learning cure for gear and software.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

I do some yes. I never been one of the beautiful people around here. I know those guys, they know me. But I stay in my little lab most of the time. Hey, I'll check out their record, if they give it to me

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

I have no idea. I put some stuff up here and there. That's why I joined this site I suppose. Whatever.

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.

I have some across a few here and there. I have a friend that is an awesome artist but refuses to share or release anything. Ill keep trying to get him to tho. -He does the same for me LOL
